Tirunih Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 "And put some chain on my niggas like i own slaves" I dunno if J.Cole had any meaning behind this particular rhyme.. But boi it's a deep rhyme.Chains is a popular thing amongst the black community in the US & UK.. Do you think it symbolizes something?like do you think it's a way of saying that blacks will never be in control of what their doing, regardless of their riches.Or even, does it subconsciously point out that behind a successful black man there is a white man,which could mean that the racist white man will always be the puppet master amongst successful blacks ?What do you lot think?
